Your Host: The Nassau Suffolk Civil Engineers
Nassau Suffolk Civil Engineers is an association of Professional Land Surveyors and Engineers founded in 1916 and
incorporated in 1927 for the advancement of the professions of Professional Land Surveying and Engineering. They
are honored to come together with their fellow statewide members and colleagues to host our 65th celebration.

Lighting the Path to the Future
This year’s theme symbolizes our event and network of members as an ever so bright and beaming light, such as
that of a lighthouse, illuminating and guiding the career path for future generations of surveyors. Come explore the
endless possibilities the world of surveying can offer. There are many paths you can choose to enhance your career.
There has never been a better time for you to embrace the vast wealth of information and peer support offered at
our annual conference. Come network and find out what everyone else is doing, how they are doing it, and how you
can improve your workplace efficiency to increase your workload.

New All-in-One Registration Pricing
Our Conference and Finance Committees worked hard to streamline the registration process and provide more
value and less worrying at our event. New this year, all conference registrations include meals! Whether you come
for 1 day or 3 days, you won’t need to worry about additional lunch fees on top of the registration fee.

Student Networking Day 2024
The NYSAPLS Education Committee has designed an afternoon including an introduction to the “real world” of
surveying to assist current students enrolled in survey related programs. It is also a great way to get to know
some of the faculty from the colleges offering surveying curriculums on the exhibit floor and potentially recruit new
employees upon graduation. Please join us for this important event to help our future licensees by giving them a
few hours of your time.
Extraordinary Exhibition Experience!
Spend more time perusing our exhibits and getting the most out of your conference experience. Once again, we will
feature exhibit hall presentations showcasing the latest advancements and trends in surveying technology. Don’t
forget to stop by in-between classes so you can vote on our annual map contest entries, bid on silent auction items for
our scholarship fund, visit the NYSAPLS Bookstore and member lounge, discover new member benefits and connect
with vendors, friends and other business professionals.

Take a few moments to review the extensive program our volunteer committees
have worked so hard to put together for you. Thank you for joining us as we
celebrate 65 years of showcasing our great profession!
Sincerely,

Kenneth J. Stigner, LS, PP
